    Where did you guys go to put nitrogen back into the shock? A motorbike store or just like a big o or discount?

    Thanks bro. 4 wheel parts will. $25 a shock. Costco said no but I'm sure it's who you talk to there

    I just pieced together a nitro set-up myself. $180 regulator and hose from Downsouth Motorsports and a $100 bottle from Air Gas. Its worth it especially when you need to pull shocks for suspension work or re-valving. $25 to fill a shock is crazy expensive.

    I don't see myself releasing it much more. It was just a fizzle that came out of mine. Maybe like 2 seconds worth. Even with it all out and the collars up I couldnt compress the shocks for shit. Had to do some hydro jack/pry/hammer/wiggle magic to get the bolts in. That's cool your getting a home kit.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Costco's nitrogen is regulated at 125 psi max. It's not that they won't recharge...they can't.

    Tim. He hooks up us locals. But he's some distance from you. He's in Thornton.

    Never mind I see you found a place.

    Wow that's crazy...I payed something similar from a rip off artist in sb when I first started out...no one here has nitro...25$ a shock pays off for all the equipment in 4 uses...and trust me you use it way more than you think

    anyone do exhaust through a fiberglass bedside? I want to do it... just not sure if the heat would deform the fiberglass, don't give two shits if it stains the outside with soot.
